Karl,

The source of my "out of memory" errors when running XML_TEST_SUITE are 
due to the test file size and using readfilemap.c. The test suite files 
are size 0, so malloc( 0 ) returns NULL and I get a false "out of 
memory" error. I assume that any build that uses readfilemap.c would 
have this return. Would it be better to do this:

    nbytes = sb.st_size;
+  if(nbytes == 0) {
+    close(fd);
+    return 1;
+  }
    p = malloc(nbytes);
    if (!p) {
+    close(fd);
      return 0;
    }

So that nbytes is checked for 0 size and return 1 ?

With this change and a couple other defines I am at:

Passed: 1773
Failed: 37
